That's odd, I didn't have it until I upgraded from 7000 to 7048. It's annoying as it keeps 'locking' the exe's I'm compiling hardly convenient that I have to reboot to recompile it or give it a new name EVERY time I want to compile it. Are you all using x64?

Edit autorun.inf on the cd/dvd to look like this [AutoRun] open=setup.exe icon=setup.exe,0 shell\silent=Silent Install shell\silent\command=i386\Winnt32.exe /unattended now when you right click on the CD there will be a second option to install Windows silently, if you do it by mistake you can still press esc to cancel the installation. Is that what your after?

Hum, what do you get when you couple there programs together? Windows Server Code Name "Longhorn" Beta 3 Mozilla Minefield 3.0a1 DownThemAll for Mozilla Firefox Well for some reason it desided to tell me persentages all over the place and that I had a speed of 1.33GB which did fluctuate ALOT! often minus 1000's Well I thought it was funny anyway

Good man, the fact the thread is asking about AMD and not Intel. Don't you just love thread hijackers that change the original topic. fight for the little guy, do you want Intel to win only for prices to go straight back up? that's what will probable happen if AMD go bang I have 4 AMD computers in this room - Benchmarks AthlonXP 3200+ (Barton) skt A Athlon64 3000+ (Winchester) skt 939 Sempron64 3000+ (Palermo) skt 754 Turon64 X2 TL50 (Taylor) skt S1 skt AM2 / S1 Dual Channel DDR2 - DDR2-667 maybe cheaper than DDR-400 AM3 processors will be able to run on Socket AM2 motherboard skt 939 Supports dual channel memory DDR Athlon64 x2's available Possibly a cheaper alternative to a AM2 Athlon64 X2 system but still giving similar performance Skt 754 Only support single channel memory DDR only Semprons avaliable for this platform now and a Sempron 3700+ costs around £200 PCI-Express v2.0 has been released to manufacturers so depending on what you want your now system for maybe worth waiting for AMD to release its now architecture and this would also enable motherboard manufacturers to integrate PCI-Express 2 into their boards. I hope that helps -----Update---- Im fully aware what Intel have out at the moment, I am a regular visitor of tomshardware.com I have no money being a student to by build a new PC.

....We haven't even sin benchmarks for it yet....for all you know the reason why it was held back was to ensure they had pulled back the lead the 8800 gave NVidia and to give it an advantage too. The difference between the 8800 & 8900 from Nvidia will probably be just like X800 to X900 and X1800 to X1900. It will simply be a more economical revision of the G80 chip which gives Nvidia the ability to increase the clock a wee bit more. It won't be like the massive jumps between new generations but ATi do have quite a job to catch up

My girl friend got a new PC for Christmas loaded with Windows Media Center 2005, it was fine until you try and install all the Windows Updates it stops installing and the PC stops working properly the only way to sort it is to switch it off and load it up again but then an error message started appearing and after clicking OK it would render the PC virtually useless. I googled it and found that disabling Windows Auto Update fixes this problem and yep it shour does, but what I could like to know is are there many of you that have suffer the same problem? Does it only affect WMC2005? I've never seen it on Windows XP or 2003 is your affected? if so what Windows Version do you use? is it retail or OEM (Inc which OEM Provider)?

that method only works if the file was created on the PC your trying to unattended activate. cant be from another PC Sorry I don't actually know where the file is suppose to reside as I have never tried this. Im assuming you've got a winnt.sif in i386 which enabled the OEM state you will need both wpa.dbl and wpa.bak

Ok, I think we have established they both have there own unique advantages. which are irrelevant to mo3adz question. Either converting the partition to NTFS or spliting the partition into FAT32 and NTFS
